Frozen Embryos Helen Perry, 36, from Ludlow, Shropshire, became pregnant using an egg which had been taken from her ovary six months earlier.
The egg was frozen, stored and then thawed. It was transferred into her womb last year and baby Emily was born a few months ago.
Dr Gillian Lockwood, Head of Midland Fertility Services clinic argues that this will give hope to women who fear losing their chance to have children through cancer or other illnesses. But fertility expert, Professor Robert Winston feels not enough research has been done into frozen embryo procedure.
They join Jenni to discuss the issues surrounding 'ice babies'.
